Chapter 132: Returning Home
Chu Yangyang followed Xie Lingyu's carriage and also entered the mansion together, although he looked a little out of place with the others in a black cloak, he didn't attract too many people's attention.
After entering the Xie Mansion, Xie Lanzhi was helped down from the carriage. After resting in the post house for a few days, Xie Lanzhi's body was much better, at least he was not so weak that he needed help to walk, but now that there are many people, Xie Lanzhi has to put on another outfit to avoid being caught.
When Mrs. Xu saw Xie Lanzhi's thin and pale face, there were tears in her eyes, although she had a lot of things to say to Xie Lanzhi in her heart, she also knew that this was not a good place to talk.
"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you help my son go back to the room to rest!" Mrs. Xu held back her tears and instructed the people around her.
After finishing speaking, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the red figure coming down from the carriage behind him, his expression paused, and he said, "Help the county king back carefully." ”
Xie Lingyu heard Mrs. Xu's voice, her eyes looked at her without any emotion, and when she saw the two little guys trembling close to her, Xie Lingyu retracted her gaze and said in a cold voice: "Get out." ”
The two little guys trembled with fright, and stood where they were, not daring to come any closer.
Seeing this beside him, Chu Yangyang walked over and stood beside Xie Lingyu, his eyes under the hood looking directly at Xie Lingyu.
Xie Lingyu put away the chill in her eyes and put one hand on Chu Yangyang's shoulder, "Let's go." ”
Later, Ah Chun and Qiu Ruo quickly followed, Zhuang Yi was still a little overwhelmed when he first came to Xie Mansion, but fortunately, Dr. Hua next to him picked him up, and he immediately followed.
Mrs. Xu didn't say anything when she saw this, but on the way back to the courtyard with Xie Lanzhi, she asked in a low voice: "Hongyin, did the county king embarrass you in the army?" ”
Xie Lanzhi shook his head and replied, "Mother, don't think about it. ”
Mrs. Xu was still a little worried, after all, it was she and Hongyin who did something sorry for Xie Lingyu three years ago, and later Xie Lingyu joined the army, and Hongyin didn't stay in the royal city for long, so he also followed.
In the past three years, the two brothers have rarely returned, and each time they have not even had time to say a few more words because of the tense war. Although there were constant letters during this period, Mrs. Xu knew that her son had always reported good news and not bad news, and Mrs. Xu was often worried that Xie Lingyu would be embarrassed because of those things three years ago.
Xie Lanzhi saw that Mrs. Xu was still frowning, and after returning to the courtyard and closing the door, Xie Lanzhi changed his sick look and said to Mrs. Xu: "Mother, Mingqi has never remembered those things, his mind is much simpler than you imagined. In the past few years, I have been in danger several times, thanks to Naruki who saved me. ”
"Three years ago, we owed him a debt, and I asked His Majesty for the throne of King Mingjun for him, firstly, for our thanksgiving and secondly, I also wanted to compensate him. I know you're still a little prejudiced against Mingqi, but now that the Xie Mansion is walking on thin ice in the royal city, if there is really a desperate day in the future, we still need to rely on Mingqi. Xie Lanzhi said to Mrs. Xu seriously.
Mrs. Xu nodded in response, but when she heard Xie Lanzhi's last words, her heart was still sour.
If it weren't for Xie Lanzhi's congenital deficiency, how could he have reached the point where he needed to rely on others.
"Someone will definitely come to the palace in a while, mother, don't show your flaws, after all, I'm pretending to be sick, and I won't go out for the next few days." Xie Lanzhi said to Mrs. Xu.
Talking about business, Mrs. Xu also packed up her mood, "Okay, you will rest in the room for a few days, and leave the outside affairs to Weiniang." ”
Xie Lanzhi smiled at this time, and Mrs. Xu got up and was about to leave, when she suddenly asked again: "When did the county king accept a little girl by his side, I saw that the county king seems to be quite close to that little girl." ”
After all, it was Xie Lingyu's side, so Mrs. Xu also had a little snack.
Xie Lanzhi raised his eyebrows and said with a gentle smile: "That little girl is Mingqi's baby, if it is suitable next year, it will be good to set a marriage for Mingqi." ”
Mrs. Xu was also stunned, as if she had been slapped on the head.
Xie Lingyu found his daughter-in-law earlier than his son???
That's impossible!
How could Xie Lingyu have a daughter-in-law?!
The more Mrs. Xu thought about it, the more she couldn't hold her breath, and then looked at her son with a little annoyance and resentment in her eyes.
Xie Lanzhi coughed lightly twice, and looked away weakly, pretending not to know what Mrs. Xu meant.
……
Mozhu Garden.
This is where Xie Lingyu lives in the mansion, Chu Yangyang pulled Xie Lingyu's sleeve and looked around curiously.
Unlike other yards full of flowers, this yard is full of Xiangfei bamboo, and when the wind blows, the bamboo leaves will sway and make a rustling sound, which makes people not only not feel noisy, but easier to meditate.
There is a thin stream between the bamboo forest and the main house, and the small stone bridge spans both sides, Chu Yangyang looked in the direction of the source of the stream, and saw that the water was actually flowing out of a rockery cave, and I don't know where the water was brought in, and an octagonal pavilion was made on the rockery, and wind chimes were hung under the eaves of the pavilion, which rang from time to time.
A flash of amazement flashed in Chu Yangyang's eyes, Rao was in the previous life, and she had rarely seen such an ingenious yard.
Chu Yangyang followed Xie Lingyu across the stone bridge, two clusters of white hibiscus flowers were planted in front of the main house, and the fragrance emitted by the hibiscus flowers was very similar to the smell on Xie Lingyu's body, Chu Yangyang couldn't help but stop.
Xie Lingyu looked at Chu Yangyang, "What's wrong?" ”
Chu Yangyang looked at Xie Lingyu, then pointed to the hibiscus flowers that had already withered more than half of them, and asked, "Can I pick one?" ”
Xie Lingyu raised his chin and motioned for Chu Yangyang to pick it up himself.
Chu Yangyang's eyes crooked with a smile, and he immediately let go of his hand holding Xie Lingyu, and ran over happily, thinking of picking the one that bloomed the most.
But I didn't know what to think, so I only picked a white petal.
Chu Yangyang walked back to Xie Lingyu's side, led him with one hand and continued to walk back to the main house, still holding the petals in the other, and fiddling with the petals in his hand all the way.
It wasn't until he returned to the main house that Xie Lingyu saw that Chu Yangyang was still staring at the petals with his head down, and when he was about to say something, he saw Chu Yangyang whimper, and he actually took the petals directly into his mouth.
Xie Lingyu: "! ”
The corners of Xie Lingyu's eyes twitched, he took a step forward, pinched Chu Yangyang's cheek, and shouted in a low voice: "Don't put everything in your mouth and eat it, spit it out." ”
Chu Yangyang's mouth pouted, but he still tried to swallow it, and then spit out his little tongue and said disgustedly: "It's so bitter, it's not delicious at all." ”
Xie Lingyu was about to laugh angrily, and glared at Chu Yangyang, "You deserve it, there is usually no shortage of pastries for you to eat, what do you do when you are idle and have nothing to do with flower petals." ”
Not to be outdone, Chu Yangyang glared at Xie Lingyu and went back, "Because you also have this smell on you." ”
